job hunt 2003 continues

i took today off to gather my thoughts and run some errands.

i went to the newspaper and did a typing and spelling test. further evidence of how i am not a good speller. i do type 78 words per minute with a 98% accuracy rate! woo!

those people at the newspaper are weird. like something is stuck up their ass. the lady i talked to seemed offended that i already applied for a position and i was just coming in to complete the tests. the position i applied for was in the promotions department so maybe those people are more fun.

there were some nice looking guys working there by the front door though. not that i'm perusing or anything.

i have an interview next Tuesday at UAMS with the college of nursing. i want a job there because i'd get tuition discounts at UALR (hello masters degree!) and they pay really well and even the retirement package rocks.

it's not that i hate the job i have now, i just need more money than they can give me. working for the state has it's financial limitations you know. and they didn't even give me a raise b/c i had a college degree now! so blah. i'll miss the people though. it was nice having people to each lunch with everyday. but i know that i'll make the same friendships at whereever i end up in the future.

-----------

it is supposed to storm really bad later. i'm kind of worried about it b/c i hate storms. and the sun has come out now so that just means it will be worse. lord i hope there are no tornados. i do not do well when there are tornado warnings. and since i live by myself, i think my fear has gotten worse. there's no one around to calm me down!

i'm feeling better about everything else though. as this one lady i know says "fuck em and make em eat fish heads." whatever that means. it does describe how i'm going to treat most people from now on though. so if you know me...watch out ;)
